One show you must watch this fall

Have any of you seen the show on Discovery Channel, Alaska: The Last Frontier? The whole family has started watching it over here and we LOVE it! Maybe it's because we were just in Alaska (and now I'm totally obsessed), but either way, it such a cool show!

It's about the Kilcher family who live completely off the grid in the Alaskan wilderness. They spend all summer building/repairing their log cabins, herding cattle, and collecting and storing food for the winter. They raise their own chickens and vegetables; they hunt rabbit and bear; they fish for Alaskan salmon; and they fend off wild wolves! And in winter...they try to stay warm and survive. It's nuts! Here's a preview of the next season that starts on 5 October.

What do you think? Have you watched it? Will you?

PS - The images at the top are from our recent trip to the last frontier, which I am so overdue in sharing with you. I'm sorry! The full itinerary is coming soon. :)
